EDITORS COMMENTS
This 19th-century advertising label captures the enchanting encounter between The Little Red Riding Hood and the cunning wolf. Created by an unknown artist, this print was used to promote Bon Marche, a renowned department store of that era. In this scene, we see the innocent little girl in her iconic red cloak standing face-to-face with the mischievous wolf. The vibrant colors and intricate details bring to life Charles Perrault's beloved folktale, which has been cherished by generations. The image evokes a sense of nostalgia for childhood memories and fairy tales. It transports us back to a time when literature played a significant role in shaping our imagination and understanding of the world around us. Chromolithography techniques were employed to produce this stunning piece of art, showcasing both technical skill and artistic prowess. Every brushstroke seems to breathe life into these imaginary characters from Perrault's tale. As we gaze upon this print today, it serves as a reminder of simpler times when department stores were not just places for shopping but also destinations filled with wonderment and magic. This advertising label is not only a testament to Bon Marche's influence but also an enduring symbol of youthfulness and innocence. Leonard de Selva expertly captured this timeless moment through his lens, preserving it for future generations to appreciate its beauty and storytelling charm.
